The second part of the supplementary question is not correct;
there are no harsh cuts. It is being done to maximise the efficient use of our
hospital theatres. Heaven forbid that a government might want to make the staff
at its hospitals efficient!
With regard to Fiona Stanley
Hospital, I have always been under the impression that some of that surgery
would be done there, providing that it is required. I will make inquiries and
double-check and get back to the member on that.
